Pseudobiceros periculosus Newman & Cannon, 1994 View in CoL
Taxonomic remarks. The species belongs to a color group showing a dark background and orange to yellow margin that should be thoroughly revised. Prudhoe (1977) reported from Queensland a species with two male gonopores which he misidentified as Pseudoceros flavomarginatus . This species was listed under single male gonopore Pseudoceros species ( Laidlaw 1902, p. 297 and 298), but Prudhoe’s specimen belongs to a darkbackground Pseudobiceros . The description by Prudhoe fits the species Pseudobiceros periculosus ( Newman & Cannon 1994) in marginal and background color, elongated cerebral eyespots group, and geographical proximity.
